Artist's Statement

Everything casts its own shadow; light, emotion, time.
We move through these shadows day in and day out, and we shape our lives accordingly.
I have long been fascinated, as artists are, by the effect of light on objects and the shadows they cast.
But I have also studied the shadows that echo from strong emotions, the comparatively peaceful ones that emanate from the quieter, calmer emotions.

Sunlight leaves an interesting array of shadows as it moves over a potted plant, or peeks over the edge of the ocean to strike Otter Cliffs.
A peaceful evening or a dance in a gentle wind also are worthy of attention, and therefore I spend my time attempting to catch these moments of light, shadow, reflection and introspection.
